This stock has been quiet for awhile, does anyone have Killer 7 numbers? I think this game might be overvalued at the moment since this will tend less toward the casual and more toward the traditional gamer. I think this will score highly with critics but end up not selling as well as the hype would lead some to believe (much like Psychonauts sales or Beyond Good & Evil). Psychonauts "sales were awful, coming in at under 100,000"(CNN). Due to this a price of 50DKP or less seems like a more accurate price from the given information.
Rising Star Games will publish Suda 51 and Grasshopper Manufacture's No More Heroes in Europe in February 2008.
"It's a massive engaging and immersive gaming experience for the Wii. This is exactly the right product to broaden the format's appeal to a wider, more serious gaming audience," commented Martin Defries, MD of Rising Star.
"Travis' exchange with him leading up to the fight was goofy and also pretty funny. Once Destroyman changed into his costume, the fight and the lunacy began. To the best of our knowledge, this was likely the first boss fight we've ever had that featured an enemy who shot lasers from his crotch, which walks that fine line between awesome and disturbing."
"Control in the game is a highlight of the experience, thanks to a very smart use of the Wii controller as well as a combo system tailor-made to show it off. "
September 19, 2007 - Ubisoft on Wednesday revealed exclusively to IGN that it has picked up the rights to publish the anticipated Wii action game No More Heroes in North America. The title will release stateside next February, just two months after the Japanese ship date.
The development of this game is at full steam and the official website has been trickling out new information about the game for the past two weeks (as it only launched about two weeks ago). There is a good possibility that this game will get launched in time for the all-important Christmas holiday in one or more regions. (Much of the information available on the official site is also being added to the english Wikipedia for those that aren't fluent in Japanese.)
I'd like to see this game become a hit, but Suda51's last title Killer7 flopped horrendously in the American market. I'm not sure what his Japanese sales figures were like.
This title seems to be getting more press, but its still quite possibly nothing more than a hi quality, hi concept flop, at least stateside.
This stock continues to see strong support, I believe we will see an upward trend with this stock over the next short while at the least, most likely it will continue to rise for some time now.
The game appears to be a GTA for the Wii with an Anime style to it and sword sighting. I imagine it will outsell 500k, especially with the number of Wii's out there. I consider this stock a strong buy.
I hope this game sells more than 500,000 copies. Not because I got 4250 things of stock, but because we need more badass exclusives like this. Come on be a hidden hit, this game has alot of potetional come on come on!

I agree. It looks like an interesting game, but I can't see it selling all that well. It's just too eccentric and weird to get mainstream acceptance.
